BACKGROUND: GW320659, a highly selective neuronal norepinephrine and dopamine re-uptake inhibitor, has been evaluated for the treatment of obesity. Scrutiny of the weight loss data from a phase II study (GlaxoSmithKline study OBS20001) showed a wide variation in weight loss response following GW320659 treatment and the possibility that the study population might include subgroups with enhanced weight loss...
